Enhance your photo slates by using the photos with urban backgrounds


Posted on Mar 18, 2017

Having your photography subjects stand in front of urban gackgrounds can help create unique photos and enhance your personalized photo slates. Dynamic photo backgrounds for printing on stone slates are everywhere, especially in cities, which have a range of cool architectural styles and designs to feature. Here are a few ways to incorporate your city into your photographs and print them on stone slates. Grab your camera and head to town. Locate buildings with interesting shapes and designs to use as an eye-catching background. Elements to look for include the following:

  • Buildings with ornate iron gates that evoke romance and elegance. These can look great in an engagement photo or wedding shot for printing on stone slates.
  • Buildings with vintage advertising that generate old-world charm for printing on stone slates. Shoot these from a distance using a wide-angle lens to capture your subjects and the signage.
  • Tight alleyways with just a few feet of empty space. These alleys offer a nice scale difference between subject and background, which adds dimension to the photograph and enhances your photo slates. Set your lens to focus on the subject and mute the sides and background.
  • Industrial areas. Stone or brick walls, large fans and concrete cylinders can be great background elements for photo slates. Shoot these big props with your subject in front and up close to add a different dimension to the photo for printing on a stone slate.
  • Large bridges, especially stone and concrete bridges. Capture the beauty of bridges and the reflection on the water to make an interesting background. Your aperture should be at a wide setting, which will keep your subjects in focus and soften the background.

Always use common sense when it comes to the suitability of photo backgrounds for printing on stone slates. Have fun with your camera and create photos that stand out from the rest for printing your personalized photo slates.

Posted on Dec 09, 2014

Stone photo slate is designed to enhance full color or black/white photo pictures. The technique of combining the image with the natural beauty of slate makes your photo display fabulous. Not only has the image been forever preserved as a photograph, but when displayed on rock, it's an everlasting treasure, as the photos on slate don't chip or fade. Each photo slate comes with a black plastic stand and is suitable for any desk, den or mantle display.

Natural Stone

Photo slate is made of natural stone, and no two stones are the preeisely same. Each stone has its own variations, so each one is unique. The unique edges of each slate give each photo different appearance, and your photo slate is unique.

Quality

Photo slate is not a "photo mounted on the stone slate". It is digitally imprint on the rock with vibriant color and finish that extend to the feathered edges of the stone, and the photo picture appears to be painted onto the rock. The quality of photo slate is very high end, not "peel" or "chip" off, and very easy to clean.
